Digital Technology: Data Protection
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether her Department has a strategy for achieving UK technology sovereignty; and if she will make a statement.
Answered by Kanishka Narayan
The Government seeks to build sovereign capability in critical technologies, as set out in the June 2025 Modern Industrial Strategy and the accompanying Digital and Technologies Sector Plan.
This approach reflects the importance of strengthening domestic capability in key areas to support the UK’s economic competitiveness, as well as to enhance national security and resilience.
